HER 1047 - Reigate Priory and Hospital

Scheduled Monument
Reigate Priory and hospital of Augustinian Canons dedicated to the Blessed Virgin and Holy Cross. Founded in the early 13th century by William de Warren, and Isabel his wife. Dissolved 1536. Little visible trace remains except on the ground plan. At the Dissolution Lord William Howard obtained the Priory Estate and demolished a greater part of the buildings, including probably the church, and transformed what remained into a mansion for his own use, and this house was in turn almost entirely rebuilt or refronted in 1779. Scheduled Monument and Listed Building
